Hi, I'm in a similar position my periods are irregular also and I haven't a clue when I ovulated either just know that I have done as now my breasts are very sore and heavy and increased in size and had the odd cramp but that's about it I'm on cd 29 and still no period, anyway I was told that you should wait at least 19 days after the last time you had sex if your irregular as a test should be postive by then if not than a trip to the doctors might be in order, and based the dates you said you would be around 5/6 weeks GL x

But July 29th to today would be 4 weeks and 2 days and August 4th would be 3 weeks and 3 days? I'm thinking it might be too early to tell. Thank you for your advice and good luck to you! If the symptoms persist and still negative tests I will have to go see a doctor. I feel like I am just crazy and all the symptoms are something else. Did anyone else feel this way and find out they were in fact pregnancy? My first was unplanned so I didn't have to go through all this questioning if I am or not. I didn't find out until I was 8-9 weeks with him.

I meant 5/6 if you add the 2 weeks before ovulation but yes without it would be 3/4 weeks and it could still be to early I'd give it a few more days then test again, unfortunately symptoms can be misleading because pms is almost the same as pregnancy symptoms, I get sore heavy swollen breasts and cramps etc every month the only difference when I was actually was pregnant was a positive test the symptoms never went away. So it's just a waiting game. GL x

Based on your dates I would expect a positive by now - usually 2-3 weeks after conception should give you an obvious positive. Wait a week and see your doctor if symptoms persist. Sounds like a hormone imbalance with the symptoms and irregular cycles. Good luck to you!

Thank you ladies! I will probably give it another week and test again and if symptoms continue will have to see the doctor. I hate going in not knowing. The symptoms have continued for a week and a half now and read that some people won't get a positive until even 6 weeks so we will see. My period has always been irregular my whole life and these symptoms are definitely not the norm for me. I'm hoping I am though so fingers crossed!
